Both forms of dancing however are exciting and involve thrilling movements to heady, rhythmically pounding music. Although raves are not usually informal clubs, there is some similarity between the settings of salsa night clubs and raves. Plus, there is some element of flirtation in glove light show dancing; this element seems to figure prominently in salsa. I think that the main similarity between my dancing and salsa is the fact that they are both fun to watch, a fact Alyssa alludes to.
I think Chelsea had some good insight into her post about the nature of bachata. I was too familiar with this type of dance until I read her post; I think I have a better understanding of it now. I would still like to find out more about it though. It would have been helpful if she had presented a few more details to help...
However, this dance is somewhat similar to mine in the fact that it she does it in a fun, social, setting -- which is where I do mine at as well. I also think she is right on in her assessment of the skydiving dancers.
Kyla's dance is very similar to mine. Electro or electronica music is frequently played at raves. Furthermore, electronica dance clubs tend to look and feel a lot like the places raves are held. What she said about the positivity and the liveliness of the overall atmosphere where she performs her dance is also what I think the atmosphere is like at the raves I go to. Also, I think a lot of people tend to dress the same at electronica clubs and raves. People wear a lot of elaborate, lighted costumes at raves, and definitely go to be seen by people and to see others as well.
